“There are many other [military] achievements, which will be unveiled in due time; for example, the ability to hit enemy [targets] at a distance of 1,500 kilometers,” Brig. Gen. Hajizadeh said on Sunday.

The senior commander stressed that his country possesses global-level drone power and is now a pioneer in missile technology.

He noted that Iran stands on par with global powers in terms of unmanned aerial vehicles, and its achievements in this field have challenged the world’s powerful armies.

The military official stated that in terms of missile technology, Iran stands above the global level, adding, “The news of the advanced hypersonic ballistic missile, which was broken recently … and is able to maneuver outside the atmosphere is nothing new, but was just announced recently.”

The top commander underlined that Iran’s hypersonic missile represents a generational growth spurt, and the enemies will not be able to come up with a new technology to counter it for many decades to come.

On November 10, Hajizadeh announced that Iran has manufactured a hypersonic ballistic missile which enjoys advanced technologies to penetrate all types of advanced air defense systems.

“The missile has a high velocity and can maneuver both in and out of the Earth’s atmosphere,” he underscored.

“The new missile can pass through all missile defense systems…. It can target the enemy’s anti-missile systems, and its production marks a huge leap in the development of a new generation of missiles,” Hajizadeh continued.

“In the space field, we were recently able to launch Qaem 100 satellite carrier, which operates on solid fuel,” the Iranian commander said, adding, “We will put the first satellite in the orbit during the current year, using Qaem 100 carrier.”

Earlier this month, the IRGC Aerospace Force successfully launched Qaem 100 three-stage solid fuel suborbital carrier.
